REFLECT
A MOMENT
|
For
this generation, we spread abroad, WORLDWIDE, a beam of light (YESHUA), a
glimpse of Hope and Truth, as we prepare the way and usher in the imminent
return of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
Following are excerpts from a series of articles which the Father has graced me to write entitled Make Us One. As it’s name implies, my hearts cry is for the Body of Christ to come together in oneness; Jews and Non-Jewish believers together, walking as one man; coming into the unity of the faith, and of the knowledge of the Son of God, unto a perfect man, unto the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ (Yeshua the Messiah). I pray like Jesus prayed....
Father Make Us One
In His Eternal Love & Service,
Gods Handmaiden

Make Us One With war on the horizon, and terrorist threats lurking everywhere, men and women around the world are seeking a solution to the dangers that may lie up ahead now that war with Iraq has already begun. Oh yes, many even look to the United Nations, the peace keeping institution placed by man, to control the situation erupting over in the middle east. But my friend can this goal really be accomplished? For just as there is a diversity of religious institutions existing today, what we see in action by way of the United Nations, is nothing more than a diversity of opinions of a league of nations all trying to achieve their own political agendas. As we stated in our last edition, God is not the author of confusion . . . but He *is* the author of Peace. And isn't it good to know that in this final generation, the generation of the fig tree, that we can all look forward to the Prince of Peace, Yeshua the Messiah, to bring an end to the confusion that exists in the world today. Let's go now to the Word of God and see what's written concerning His earthly reign. For unto us a Child is born, unto us a Son is given: and the government shall be upon His shoulder: and His name shall be called Wonderful, Counseller, The mighty GOD, The Everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace. Of the increase of His government and peace there shall be no end, upon the throne of David, and upon His kingdom, to order it, and to establish it with judgment and with justice from henceforth even for ever. The zeal of the Lord of hosts will perform this. (Isaiah 9:6-7) Oh that's good news Body of Christ, the Prince of Peace Himself will establish His Kingdom right here on earth, executing judgment and justice throughout this land. Oh I know that traditionally we have been taught to believe that Christians shall all one day die and go to heaven to spend eternity with Jesus . . . you know just walking or floating up in heaven on the clouds. But don't you know that some of us in this final generation just might not die at all. Oh no we shall be right here to witness Jesus Christ, Yeshua the Messiah's return to this planet earth to set up His Millennial Kingdom. Then, finally my friend, PEACE shall indeed super rule. Now for all of you looking for an escape route, something traditionally referred to as the rapture, you know that cowardly escape from the tribulation of the antichrist, which by the way the word rapture is not even in the bible . . . you might as well unpack your bags, Jesus ain't coming until the last trump . . . which shall be after the tribulation of the antichrist. We have documented this fact several times in previous issues. But because of the crisis evolving in the middle east, it is necessary to document it again. My friend the stage is being set for the grand appearance of the antichrist and his short reign here on earth. Let's review. Now we beseech you, brethren, by the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, and by our gathering together unto Him, That ye be not soon shaken in mind, or be troubled, neither by spirit, nor by word, nor by letter, as from us, as that the day of Christ is at hand. Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition, Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the Temple of God, shewing himself that he is God. (II Thessalonians 2:1-4) Saints of God there is only one son of perdition who has already been sentenced by Almighty God to die or perish in the Lake of Fire, and that is Satan himself. Final judgment for all of mankind does not even take place until after the 1000 year millennial reign of Jesus Christ at the Great White Throne Judgement, unless you make the first resurrection, which happens at Jesus' return. And Jesus is not coming back for His Church until Satan, de facto, appears in the flesh as antichrist and sits in the Temple, and declares before the world that he is God. Please don't let this truth go over your head. This *is* the final generation . . . Many of Gods children will be deceived. Let's skip down to verses 8 and 9 because we have already discussed this thoroughly in previous issues. And then shall that wicked be revealed, whom the Lord shall consume with the spirit of His mouth, and shall destroy with the brightness of His coming: Even him, whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders, (II Thessalonians 2:8-9) There you have it . . . Jesus is coming after the working of Satan, who shall come with all power and signs and lying wonders. Oh yes many of Gods children will fall for the lie that he (Satan) is Jesus Christ coming to rapture His people away. Wake Up Body of Christ! Get some oil in your vessels so that during that dark hour you will be able to endure until the end. Because only he that endures to the end of the tribulation, without being deceived, shall truly be saved . . . whether you have confessed with your mouth the Lord Jesus or not. Again my friends the stage is being set. The pieces of Gods prophetic puzzle are falling into place daily. Michael, the Prince of our People, is about to kick the devil out. There is about to be a regime change in the Heavenly Gulf. Take notice of world events, for they are but a type of what shall shortly come to pass. He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit is saying to the Church! And there was war in heaven: Michael and his angels fought against the dragon; and the dragon fought and his angels, And prevailed not, neither was their place found any more in heaven. And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him. And I heard a loud voice saying in heaven, "Now is come salvation, and strength, and the kingdom of our God, and the power of His Christ: for the accuser of our brethren is cast down, which accused them before our God day and night. And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony; and they loved not their lives unto the death. Therefore rejoice, ye heavens, and ye that dwell in them. Woe to the inhabiters of the earth and of the sea! for the devil is come down unto you, having great wrath, because he knoweth that he hath but a short time." (Revelation 12:7-12) That's all he has saints of God is a short time. And because the Father has already told us all things, we don't have to be alarmed. Just put on the whole armour of God and stand against the wiles of the devil. And except that the Lord had shortened those days, no flesh should be saved: but for the elect's sake, whom He hath chosen, He hath shortened the days. (Mark 13:20) Did you see that? Because of His elect's sake, the days have been shortened. It won't be 7 years . . . It won't be 2 1/2 years . . . But as it is written, the tribulation of the antichrist has been shortened to a 5 month period. Let's document this in the Word of God. |
And the fifth angel sounded, and I saw a star fall from heaven unto the earth: and to him was given the key of the bottomless pit. And he opened the bottomless pit; and there arose a smoke out of the pit, as the smoke of a great furnace; and the sun and the air were darkened by reason of the smoke of the pit. And there came out of the smoke locusts upon the earth; and unto them was given power, as the scorpions of the earth have power. And it was commanded them that they should not hurt the grass of the earth, neither any green thing, neither any tree; but only those men which have not the seal of God in their foreheads. (Revelation 9:1-4) Do you have the seal of God in your forehead? Is the Word of God absorbed into your mind so that you know for a fact that the abominable one spoken of by Daniel the Prophet comes first before the True King, Yeshua the Messiah, who comes at the last trump? And to them it was given that they should not kill them, but that they should be tormented five months: and their torment was as the torment of a scorpion, when he striketh a man. (Revelation 9:5) Now don't take the word scorpion and locust literally. Jesus is simply painting a picture in your mind so that you can see physically something which you can relate to. Once you understand it, then you can see it spiritually. Did you not read that their torment, talking about the locust army, was "as" the torment of a scorpion, when he striketh a man. I exhort you to do a study on scorpions so that you can spiritually see how satan and his army will sting and shut down your mind and central nervous system, so as to render the entire world, except for Gods elect, spiritually helpless by all the signs and wonders that he shall perform when he arrives. You see, his role is to deceive you into believing that he is something that he is not . . . Yeshua the Messiah, Jesus the Christ. For false Christs and false prophets shall rise, and shall shew signs and wonders, to seduce, if it were possible, even the elect. But take ye heed: behold, I have foretold you all things. But in those days, after that tribulation, the sun shall be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, And the stars of heaven shall fall, and the powers that are in heaven shall be shaken. And then shall they see the Son of man coming in the clouds with great power and glory. (Mark 13:22-26) Then saints of God, after the tribulation, after the reign of the antichrist (that pretender, that wanna be Jesus, that deceiver, the father of lies, that serpent) . . . after the short reign of that vile one the devil . . . then shall we see the Son of man coming in the clouds with great power and glory. Oh Glory to God . . . Glory to God . . . Glory to God in the Highest! The kingdoms of this world shall then become the kingdoms of our God. Jesus Himself shall reign and Truth and Justice shall prevail throughout the earth. What an exciting time that will be, and what a truly exciting time it is right now to be alive. Gods elect don't have to worry about terrorism, suicide bombers, or nuclear war. We definately don't have to worry about the short reign of the antichrist. He has been given strick orders, by Almighty God, not to harm the elect of God . . . those which have the seal of God in their foreheads. We have an appointed destiny to fulfill. Are you familiar with what is written in our Fathers Word? Are you familiar with the prophets, and with what is written in that great book of the unveiling . . . the book of Revelation? The Revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave unto Him to shew unto His servants things which must shortly come to pass; and He sent and signified it by His angel unto His servant John, Who bare record of the word of God, and of the testimony of Jesus Christ, and of all things that he saw. Blessed is he that readeth, and they that hear the words of this prophecy, and keep those things which are written therein: for the time is at hand. (Revelation 1:1-3) Are you Blessed . . . happy and to be envied because you have read and hear (understand) this wonderful revelation of the Prince of PEACE - Yeshua the Messiah? Are you familiar with our Fathers total plan for mankind? And he said unto me, These sayings are faithful and true: and the Lord God of the holy prophets sent His angel to shew unto His servants the things which must shortly be done. Behold I come quickly: blessed is he that keepeth the sayings of the prophecy of this book. And I John saw these things, and heard them. And when I had heard and seen, I fell down to worship before the feet of the angel which shewed me these things. Then saith he unto me, "See thou do it not: for I am thy fellowservant, and of thy brethren the prophets, and of them which keep the sayings of this book: worship God" And he said unto me, "Seal not the sayings of the prophecy of this book; for the time is at hand. (Revelation 22:6-10) Saints of God Jesus Christ has loosed the seals of the book of Revelation. All you need to do is go to Him (THE WORD) and ask Him (JESUS) for truth and understanding. He stands daily at the door . . . for all that will knock, He *will* open the door and let you come in. But for those that choose to refuse, He also has a message for you. He that is unjust, let him be unjust still: and he which is filthy, let him be filthy still: and he that is righteous, let him be righteous still: and he that is holy, let him be holy still. And behold, I come quickly; and My reward is with Me, to give every man according as his work shall be. I am Alpha and Omega, the Beginning and the End, the First and the Last. Blessed are they that do His commandments, that they may have right to the tree of life, and may enter in through the gates into the city. For without are dogs, and sorcerers, and whoremongers, and murderers, and idolaters, and whosoever loveth and maketh a lie." I Jesus have sent Mine angel to testify unto you these things in the churches. I am the Root and the Offspring of David, and the bright and morning Star." And the Spirit and the bride say, Come. And let him that heareth say, Come. And let him that is athirst come. And whosoever will, let him take the water of life freely. For I testify unto every man that heareth the words of the prophecy of this book, If any man shall add unto these things, God shall add unto him the plagues that are written in this book: And if any man shall take away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God shall take away his part out of the book of life, and out of the holy city, and from the things which are written in this book." He Which testifieth these things saith, "Surely I come quickly." Amen. Even so, come, Lord Jesus. The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all. Amen. (Revelation 22:11-21) |
